i usually feed a mix of cyclopeeze, mysis, and/or krill 2x a week. usually about 2 hours after the lights turns off.

so it needs meaty foods, cyclopeeze wont be enough on its own?, and it also must be after lights off?

They don't need to be fed after lights out, but sometimes this is easier. I find that fish, shrimp etc.. are less likely to steal it when the lights are out.

I've never tried cyclopeeze, just meaty foods, so I can't really say... I usually just place a small piece directly on the coral.

I usually put a small piece of silverside or krill on the mouth & its usually eaten within a minute. If you are having problems with the food flying off, turning off any powerheads usually helps
